On January 29, 2022, 38-year-old Rhonda Cox and her husband, 34-year-old James Neal, were found dead in their Dempsey Road home in Fayetteville, West Virginia, after a 911 call to the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department around 4:45 a.m. The primary suspect named in the investigation is Rhonda’s father, 59-year-old Carl Cox of Fayetteville. Deputies found Carl Cox and another man in the yard with their hands raised; the second man was not charged and was described as asleep during the incident.

Authorities say the deaths were the result of a double shooting of a domestic nature following an argument. Investigators reported that Carl Cox was in possession of a seven-shot revolver chambered in .357 magnum, which was the weapon used. The prosecution’s account at trial included surveillance video from the home and testimony from family members and a former cellmate about possible motive. The jury returned guilty verdicts on two counts of first-degree murder.

Does anyone have information about Rhonda’s life in Fayetteville or about the events on Dempsey Road that morning?
